Ingredients

  • 1 round, firm loaf bread (1 1/2 lb., 8 to 10-inches in diameter)
  • 2 cups shredded sharp Cheddar cheese (8 oz.)
  • 2 packages (3 oz. each) cream cheese, softened
  • 1 1/2 cups dairy sour cream
  • 1/2 cup diced cooked ham (5 oz.)
  • 1/2 cup chopped green onion
  • 1 (3 oz.) can whole green chilies, drained and chopped
  • 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 1 tablespoon butter, melted

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (moderate).
  2. Slice off the top of the bread loaf and reserve it.
  3. Hollow out the inside of the bread with a small paring knife, leaving a 1/2-inch shell.
  4. Cut the removed bread into 1-inch cubes; set aside for toasting.
  5. Mix shredded Cheddar, softened cream cheese, sour cream, cooked ham, chopped green onion, chopped green chilies, Worcestershire sauce, melted butter, and vegetable oil in a bowl.
  6. Fill the hollowed bread shell with the cheese mixture.
  7. Place the bread top back on the shell and bake until the filling is hot and bubbly, about 20-25 minutes.
  8. Toast the bread cubes until golden brown, then serve alongside the fondue with assorted raw vegetables for dipping.
